Financial aid update for graduate certificate programs

Students in graduate degree programs (master's and doctoral) can qualify for federal financial aid by filing the FAFSA application. Recently, the University of Delaware has developed a number of graduate certificate programs to provide targeted skills for students who are seeking to develop specific skill sets. The U.S. Department of Education classifies all non-degree programs as "Gainful Employment" (GE) programs. GE programs must be pre-approved by the U.S. Department of Education before students in those programs can apply for federal financial aid.

The UD Office of Student Financial Services has submitted the following graduate certificate programs for approval:

The College of Health Sciences' Dietetic Internship Certificate program has been approved for federal financial aid for several years and has been grandfathered into the GE program policies. The UD Office of Student Financial Services continues to monitor the approval process and will notify directors of the above programs and the Office of Graduate and Professional Education when approval is granted.
